58. Fitness, Motherhood, and Working Smarter, Not Harder With Aisha Zaza

May 13, 2025 • Betsy O'Brien

In this episode, I am joined by Aisha Zaza, a macros coach with nearly two decades of experience in the fitness world. Aisha’s goal is to help women build better habits, live healthier lives, and feel stronger and more confident.

Aisha opens up about how motherhood surprised her in the best ways, and how she’s now in the best shape of her life after two kids. We chat about mental health and her struggle with antepartum depression and pregnancy insomnia, why having time for yourself is so important, and the reality that sometimes you can’t do it all (and that’s totally okay)!

We dive into Aisha’s journey from CrossFit to (begrudgingly) falling in love with running, her game-changing approach to meal prep and macros, and why she believes working smarter, not harder is the best strategy.
